setting up large frag tank question

[coralbeauties]

I am setting up a 100 gallon 7 ft frag tank. My question is do you all put fish in the tank? Any other critters? I wont have much it it at first till I get the stock built up.
thanks for your input

Before everything imo you should add a bottle of bacteria.

The new frag tank is on the same system as my main display tank that has been up and running for years.

I personally do not have a frag tank. However, I have seen many frag tanks around my city and friends. Most of them usually have lots of snails and a few fish for algae maintenance. Most fish I seen in a frag tanks were around 3-4 usually with 1 being a tang.

Exactly my mistake lol. The tank went through a mini cycle because I thought it would be fine since they were plumbed together. Then I learned that I had no bacteria in the new surface of the frag tank.
